I had originally written it this way, but upon reflection I didn't really want the "doesn't compile the contents" behavior, in case it masks errors in the contents. (Similar to the old C preference of `if` to `#if` to avoid bitrot.) Assuming that a compiler worth its salt can delete the `if`, is there a strong reason to use `if constexpr` here?
